RE: taking time away (in reply to estebanana)

ORIGINAL: estebanana I don't need to process this with you any further. Let the list get back on it's way. I'm out for a while because I need some space from this and you while I work. Yeah Stephen, that's what you keep saying. Just like a battered woman, "I'm out this time.". But you never are. Just keep on being a drama queen... I tried for a month to pay you a deposit and get my name on the list, and you weren't a responsible enough business man to even get that done. Meanwhile I see on Facebook that you are putting your list on hold to build a guitar for someone else who isn't on the list? How's that supposed to make a paying customer feel? I can tell you being that it seems that your process to think logically has left you. 1: This builder won't call me back. 2: He hasn't given me info about paying the list deposit. 3: He's "going to build this guitar for ***** and thin I'll go back to making guitars on my waiting list." That's all behind us now, so no need to talk about it. I could unleash on you pretty heavy here but I won't. You would probably like that... What you need to remember is not what I think about you, but what people in the future will think about you when they read these threads. At this point I would worry that this is harming my business if I was in your shoes. Maybe it isn't and maybe it never will, but its not worth the chance. You already have many threads that you have been a part of which didn't put you in the best of light perhaps, add these 2 to the book. I thought that maybe you were just blowing off steam and would take this stuff down, but I guess not. The point when you got mad at me is all because I asked a question on the list. Guess because we had talked about me ordering a guitar that you thought I became your property or something. Keep in mind I had said on my thread that I didn't know who was going to build the damn thing. This is because you had demonstrated through lack of contact that my business wasn't important. I have tried to be nice and be a man about all of this. I have offered you a public apology, (though I did nothing wrong), along with my unyielding support of your work. However you still come back with this time I'm leaving, and I fired you as a customer, and so on. You can't just let it go even when someone offers apologies to you, the same someone who did nothing wrong other than try to keep you and another builder from fighting with words. My crimes here are getting involved with you in the first place and thinking you wanted to make guitars for people. Oh, and trying to keep you from harming your reputation with your posts. And yes, before you say it, I know that your list battles aren't my business. Because I thought highly of you as a person and a builder though, I just wanted to try to pull you back and get you to think. I should have kept my mouth shut and let you do what you see as best. But because I like you I didn't want to see you do anything that would harm your reputation. I have had quite a few instruments built for me in my lifetime, and not once did I have a bad experience with a luthier, so I'm not willing to take the blame for this. So in short people can look through all these threads and decide for themselves how they feel about statements both you and I have made. I will close my communication with you forever with this remark. After rereading all of this and thinking about it once again, for my part you can go to hell. That's about the best way to put it. Also don't ever count on me recommending you to anyone again. I have gotten more than one message from other members who are convinced that you have went crazier than a s**t house rat. That's starting to seem likely to me as well. Go ahead and reply again, because I won't. I have been to nice to you already.
